Throughout Europe many minority languages, once threatened by ignorance, indifference and intolerance, began to experience some revitalization, but now face new threats from increased integration. This book discusses these issues with vivid, up-to-date examples from the Baltic to the Mediterranean, from Ireland to Turkey.

This text explores the dynamics of community self-help in local neighbourhoods. It shows how widespread it is, and argues that it should be considered as the third major sector of social and economic organization (alongside the state and market). Danny Burns, Colin C. Williams and Jan Windebank examine community self-help as a springboard into the mainstream, a complement to it and an alternative. Finally, the book opens out a vision of social organization with self-help and mutual aid at its heart.

Uncovering how cash-in-hand economies are composed of not only the underground sector (work akin to formal employment conducted for profit-motivated purposes), but also a hidden economy of favours more akin to mutual aid, this book displays the need to transcend conventional market-oriented readings of cash-in-hand work and radically rethink whether seeking its eradication through tougher regulations is always appropriate. It argues for a variegated policy approach that recognizes these two distinct forms of cash-in-hand work and which tailors policy accordingly.

Leadership accountability - for violence, corruption and environmental harm - is a new aspect of globalization and civil society. This innovative forward-looking analysis explains how 'cumulative lock-in' fuels leadership deceit. The lessons are for those learning to be, or learning to question, leaders.
